From the recording Messages - 2018 Album Release
Lyrics
So it’s time to think about the setting of the sun
I’ve played my heart out every day – The game is nearly won
Counting down the hours ‘til another season’s done
Looking back at all the years, and it’s been quite a run
I’ve paid my dues and done my best – I hold my head up high
I left it all out on the field – I hope I satisfied
And those I leave behind me now are ready for this day
They’ll carry on and rise above whatever comes their way
What’s to be my legacy, and how will they remember me
What will be the story when I’m gone
Thinking ‘bout my legacy – Should I have done things differently
And how will they define me later on
I’ll fill out all the papers now and sign the dotted line
Make it all official so I know my time is mine
I’ll pack my things and say goodbye and then with one last look
I’ll take my leave with a final bow and then I’ll close the book
What’s to be my legacy, and how will they remember me
What will be the story when I’m gone
Thinking ‘bout my legacy – Should I have done things differently
And how will they define me later on
This is what I’ve worked for – Seems a thousand years
No early mornings, late nights anymore
Friends I’ve made – I’ll keep the ones that I hold dear
Even after walking out the door
What’s to be my legacy, and how will they remember me
What will be the story when I’m gone
Thinking ‘bout my legacy – Should I have done things differently
And how will they define me later on
